Re: [flexcoders] Re: Capturing and Saving an image in Flex (BitmapData)
You'll need some server-side code to accept the image upload and save it to
disk. It's pretty simple in PHP.
On the Flex side, you'll just need to use something like URLLoader or
HTTPService to POST the image to your upload form on the server.

I have this so far. Where I have the ?? is where I would like to know a way
to either transfer the newly created image to a folder on the server...or I
am at the point I could just let them download it/save it and then reupload
it (dont prefer that).
public function saveImage():void {
var bitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(canvas.width,
canvas.height);
var rightNow:Date = new Date();
bitmapData.draw(canvas,new Matrix());
var bitmap : Bitmap = new Bitmap(bitmapData);
var jpg:JPEGEncoder = new JPEGEncoder();
var ba:ByteArray = jpg.encode(bitmapData);
??(UserDataModel.getInstance().person.username + '-' + rightNow +
'.jpg');
Alert.show(Your image has been saved and is in your photo
gallery, Image Saved);
}

In order to save the image file to disk, you need to use the AIR File API,
which is available only to AIR applications.
You can capture the image, encode it as PNG or JPEG using
mx.graphics.codec.JPEGEncoder or mx.graphics.codec.PNGEncoder, then upload
the resulting byte to a server. Then your server application can save the
file to disk on the server.

Can someone point me to an example of using the BitmapData.draw() to
capture an image of a container on the screen and save it to the
harddisk of the server. I see some that show me how to capture and
process the image, but the saving it to the server is a mystery.
I want my kids to be able to save their drawings/colorings to the web
site art gallery. Thanks!
Re: [flexcoders] VideoDisplay - video is playing, but without audio
One of our projects has suffered from a similar issue. We're streaming audio from Flash Media Server, and sometimes the audio will cut out - we still get cue points embedded in the audio, the NetStream object doesn't register any errors, and the rest of the app acts like the audio ends at the right time. We also have a recording aspect to our project, and when the audio cuts out, sometimes it will cut back in after we record something. We've really only noticed this problem when running the app on Windows 7 -- and it's more prevalent when the computer is connected via wireless. Have you noticed any similar patterns in your app? -Brian On Wed, Mar 3, 2010 at 10:30 PM, joyh2002 joyh2...@yahoo.com wrote: I use VideoDisplay to play videos in my Flex app. The videos are hosted in our local web server. The size of the video is around 10MB to 30MB. I need to play 60 to 80 videos throughout the app. The videos are playing fine, but the audio is missing after playing some videos - not reproducible all the time, but if that happens, all audio stops playing till the end of the app. What could be the issue? any idea?

Re: [flexcoders] help - code assist stopped working
Are you using FB as an Eclipse plugin? If so, you should be able to get the error log by going to Window-Show View-Other, then picking Error Log from the list. -Brian On Thu, Mar 4, 2010 at 11:55 AM, Chris Sheffield cmsheffi...@gmail.comwrote: I apologize. This is probably more of an Adobe Support issue, but since I'm using beta 2 of FB4, I wasn't sure what kind of support is currently available. Anyway, I was working on a project yesterday and all of a sudden my code assist stopped working in .as files. Still seems to work fine in .mxml files, so not sure what's going on. Has anyone run into this? Is there anything I can do? The error I receive is: Content Assist did not complete normally. Please see the log for more information. java.lang.NullPointerException I haven't checked the log because I have no idea where it can be found. Running on a Mac, btw. I suppose my next step is to simply reinstall the product if I can't find another fix. Thanks, Chris -- Chris Sheffield Read Naturally, Inc. www.readnaturally.com
